Sonder Bike Wheels
High performance, durable, low maintenance, uncompromising quality.
Sonder Bike Wheels
Our hand-built wheels are built to take mountains of abuse in their stride. When we started Sonder, money couldn't buy the wheels we were riding: tubeless-ready 650b+ boost wide-rim wheelsets. So we built our own.
Made in Britain
Your wheels have a huge influence on the character of a bike. We look after the whole process to produce something truly special. By bringing wheel building to our factory in the UK we increase quality, offer far more custom options and improve production efficiency to reduce the impact on the planet by not shipping boxes of wheels around the world.
28-Day Ride Guarantee - love them or we'll give you your money back
If you don’t bond with your wheels, you can send them back for a no-quibble refund within 60 days. We’ll even cover the cost of returns postage for UK orders.
Nova Wheelset Series
Tubeless ready and bombproof. Nova are our reliable, versatile wheelsets for any terrain, all year round.
Beautifully balanced with a steel freehub body and stainless steel spokes for ultimate durability. Sealed cartridge bearings also make Nova low maintenance.
Alpha Wheelset Series
Wider. Lighter. Faster.
Alpha are tubeless ready performance wheelsets with wider internal widths for decreased rolling resistance. The 6 Pawl, alloy freehub provides 120 engagement points for immediate pedalling response and stainless steel spokes provide year round durability.
